We had a wonderful experience. Our server was knowledgable about the wine, the history of the vineyard, and overall fun. We didn't get food but they had cheese, olives, and salami to purchase. There are inside and outside tables. Their wine was delicious and very reasonably priced.

We were their last group of the afternoon, for covid safety we were outdoors under the tin roof patio. It began to lightly rain and our hostess was still friendly, gracious, and informative. We felt welcomed, at home and very much enjoyed ourselves. Nice atmosphere - good wines! Thank you for the experience.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our wine tasting experience at Midnight Cellars. Nicole, our server was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. She took her time explaining the wines we were trying and even had us try wines off the menu she thought we would enjoy. We did not order any food. We look forward to returning to this boutique winery in the future.

We had a wonderful time tasting Midnight's delicious wines, there was even a treat for our puppy. The wine tasting on their back patio was comfortable - with heaters on a chilly, wet afternoon. The staff were incredibly friendly & knowledgeable making for a perfect afternoon. And our case of wine made it home before we did!

We brought our own food so that category was not applicable. We had an amazing time and our wine server was great. She was very helpful and knowledgeable, in addition to letting us taste other things that may have been open! I would recommend you visit Midnight Cellars and spend the afternoon outside on their back patio and yard area.

What a pleasant environment! Midnight Cellars was a perfect location for a picnic, wine and a friendly country setting. I loved pulling into the driveway to see all the wine barrels stacked up and parking so close to the entrance. The tasteful house utilizes the celestial theme of the bottles of wine and the back patio is quintessential Paso comfort chic! Our server, Nicole, was informative, friendly and passionate about making our experience perfect. It’s all about the little touches and Nicole knew what we needed before we even thought to ask. What a lovely place- we’ll definitely be back!!

We had an exceptional afternoon at Midnight Winery. Picnic tables were outside under the oak trees. Plenty of space among all of the tables. Casey and Dimitra were so helpful and pleasant even with masks on they made us feel welcome as they poured lovely wines for us. Rich, the winery owner and maker, even came to each of the tables to say hello.

Always fun to drop in at Midnight Cellars. It’s been too long with all the pandemic closures, but love the upgrades you’ve made. Meghan made our tasting experience and wine club pickup a real treat. Hoping for nothing but success for Rich and his team as they continue to turn out awesome wines in a very comfortable venue. Cheers!

Overall a good visit. I didn't like sitting in the front facing the parking lot. Should be much better when the back area is finished.

Overall we had a very nice visit. I was surprised that you still charge a tasting fee when a person purchases 2 bottles at retail.

I believe it was Caitlyn who served us. She was very nice, attentive. We did not get what we've received at other vineyards - a full "lesson" about the wines offered. I did get the very best deal in the world with your Rose special. Cannot wait to share it with my girlfriends. We will come back as we'd like to learn more about Midnight Cellars. Happy 25th anniversary. The wine tumblers are a nice touch.

Beautiful place, wish we could have toured the place. Like to see where the grapes are and where the wine is made. Lovely wines.

We always enjoy Midnight. The day we went was really hot though. Not their fault, but more shade or fans would have made the experience more pleasant.

It was very nice to be outside and visit your tasting room. We purchased wine and unfortunately later we went to the local Paso Albertsons market and saw the wine we purchased for for a lot less than what we paid. The $25 Wine was $11.99, the estate Zin purchased for $49 was $19,99 , Chardonnay $36 was 14.99 Cab Sauv $55 Was $17.99. I understand how the pricing usually works but I am so disappointed and Feel that I was take advantage of. I belong to many wineries clubs but this is true price gouging.

Great place. Our visit was on a really hot day. Only outside seating available due to COVID regulations.
